| Reverse description | Within a laurel wreath, a facing bust of Zeus — patron deity of the Nemean Games — rendered in the local provincial style, with the deity's head surmounted by a wreath. The ethnic inscription ΝΕΜΕΙΑ ΑΡΓΕΙωΝ appears outside the wreath, referencing the Nemean Games held under the authority of Argos. The overall composition commemorates the city's role as organizer of this Panhellenic festival. |
